Exam Information:
Florida State Contractors must pass a Business & Finance exam plus Trade Knowledge examinations with a minimum score of 70%. These tests may be taken in any order, but since the Business & Finance books and study material are required for both exams, it is much easier to prepare, pass, and get this exam completed first.
(1) Business & Finance Exam "Computer Based Test"
This is an "Open Book Test" utilizing 3 exam reference books with 120 multiple choice questions to be completed in 6 ½ hours. This test is administered on computer at over a thousand testing centers across the country and students may schedule to take this exam at any location and on any date convenient for them.
Our exam prep program has been designed to uniquely simulate the State testing interface so that students may practice taking tests on computer which are just like the real State exam. This familiarity gives our students a tremendous advantage on exam day.

Most contractor exam candidates have a great deal of personal experience in their trade and do not have difficulty passing the "General Trade Knowledge" portion of their examination. But very few students have financial accounting experience and therefore find the "Business & Finance" portion of the test very challenging.
We do NOT currently offer a Learning Program covering the General Trade Knowledge Portion of the Pollutant Storage Contractor Exam.
But, we DO offer our acclaimed Business and Finance Exam Learning Program for students who want every advantage in passing this exam.

"Exam Review & Highlighting Guide" Videos
Our narrated "Exam Review & Highlighting Guide" videos walk you through each of the required "Exam Reference Books", reviewing the concepts from these books that are currently being covered on the exam and explaining the problem-solving techniques that you must master to do the math problems on your test.
These presentations also pinpoint "Answer Passages" to highlight and critical pages to Tab for quick location. You may review each section at your convenience, on your own schedule, at your own pace, until you have mastered the required material, and using the latest in computer-based-training technology.
"We do not simply give students endless pages to read like other schools!"
Interactive "Study Question" Modules:
Our "Study Questions" are extremely realistic and will be very similar to the questions that you will see on exam day. Every question in our innovative program is accompanied by a "Hint" and "Detailed Explanation". For tough estimating and mathematical problems, we’ve also included "Narrated Solution Presentations" that are attached right to the question for your convenience.
These features will ensure that you learn how to work through each problem and find the answer to each and every question on your exam. In the event that you do not fully understand any material, you are encouraged to call us at your convenience and one of our helpful instructors will be happy to review or explain any concepts you’re struggling with.
"Flash Card" Review:
Time is of the essence on exam day! The "Flash Card” Review component of our Learning Program is designed to help you develop and hone your search procedures, to select the correct reference book and pinpoint the correct answer page quickly and efficiently. This review shuffles all questions by book to challenge your skill level in picking out key words and navigating your books with confidence.
Students who train with our Flash Card Review modules are "Up-To-Speed-To-Succeed" on exam day.
Randomly-Generated "Practice Exams":
Unlike other schools that typically create one mock practice exam for their students, our revolutionary system randomly-generates a new set of questions each and every time you launch the module, utilizing the same content criteria the state uses to compile the real test.
Upon completion, the system will generate a unique "Performance Assessment" that isolates incorrectly answered questions and provides detailed explanations to ensure students know exactly how to derive the correct answers. Easy-to-read graphs will display the student's areas of proficiency and areas of weakness. It also indicates where their speed is on target and where they are answering questions too slowly. This state-of-the-art tool gives our students a systematic approach to review and master the required material and increase their overall exam scores.
Because most contractors are active individuals out and about in the field each day, the experience of sitting in a cubical for 6 hours straight, taking a computer-based state certification exam is very stressful. Especially if they have never seen or used the computer program they are being tested on. Our students have a tremendous advantage because our proprietary "Practice Exams" were designed to explicitly match the real state exam interface. It has the same look, features, and functionality so our students can practice using this program BEFORE they sit for the real deal.
In fact, this module is such an invaluable tool that even instructors at competitive schools encourage their students to purchase our randomly-generated practice exams.
Note: This is a legitimate practice exam and the student needs to set aside the appropriate amount of time to take a full and complete exam to get meaningful results. For piracy protection reason users are restricted to five opening per module.
Specialty Learning Modules
Business-Exam "Math Review" Module:
There are always several involved math questions on the business exam and the test taker needs to have a basic understanding of these topics. Our Math Review Module will help students with calculating interest payments, retainage, depreciation, payroll, percentage of completion method of accounting , financial rations, etc.
Because some of these problems can be very time consuming and your exam time is limited it is important to understand that you should not waste too much time on exam day on complex problems with lengthy solutions. You need to have a basic understanding and learn to do quick estimates to find the most likely solution. If you have extra time at the end of your exam you can always go back and do a more detailed calculation to ensure you selected the right answer. Remember, a quick look-up question has the same point value as a long estimate question.
This math review module will teach you how to work through each problem in a fully detailed manner to find the exact solution, as well as tips for doing a quick estimate to find the closest answer choice quickly.
"Exam-Vocabulary" Module:
Whether you’re new to the construction industry or a seasoned pro, more than likely you will come across unfamiliar terminology on this exam.
